What we're looking for

The Forth Reserves team is a small team who manage five reserves across Central Scotland. With limited staff time and an increasing amount of office we really need additional support to help run our office and therefore our reserves more efficiently.

The skills you need

You don't need any experience of working in an office but good administrative and organisations skills are essential. Good computer skills and knowledge of Microsoft office is desirable (training can be provided for any systems that are unfamiliar including RSPB in house systems). Good communications skills and a friendly, approachable and patient attitude would be helpful.

Your time

What's in it for you?

We can help you refresh old or develop new office skills as well as giving you invaluable insight into the workings of Europe's largest conservation charity.
